112

This is our top clicking deal from today's Top 20 email so far. It's limited availability, so thought I'd circulate it here too.

Five-star cruise line Cunard is hosting a "let your guest be our guest" sale — where the second guest cruise fare is free — across a range of selected voyages in 2018. To make this sale even more exciting, CruiseAway is offering a complimentary dinner for two in the Veranda Restaurant, exclusive for Travelzoo members only.

Our favourite picks are:

Sydney to Osaka
$4629 for two for a 15-night cruise on board Queen Elizabeth
Departs 28 February 2018

Sydney to Hong Kong
$7149 for two for a 22-night cruise on board Queen Mary 2
Departs 9 March 2018

    This is a Cun of a deal…

    This site is BS, needing to sign up to see the deal pfft.

        Sorry, but that sounds like a typical marketing speech and it is heard a lot and not well taken here at OzBargain. If you were upfront with your post, saying that the company had a sale and that TravelZoo would add paying for the cover charge to one of their restaurants on top of it, it would have been much better.

        to disclose how much commission they make.

        I don't think this is a fair comment to make.

        Do you disclose how much you or your boss makes out of a job/product? When you buy something at the supermarket, do you demand to know how much the shop gets? Do you ask how much extra cashrewards makes on every deal?

          @wl au: To clarify (once again) the reason I posted this was because it was our top clicking deal from today's email and I thought because of this some people would be interested in it. No sinister intentions, no commissions - if people like great travel deals, then they should become a Travelzoo member - because we have them in spades. If you don't like the deal, don't take it. But it is a legitimate deal :-)

          @wl au: apples with apples you say….

          OK, IWTF deals, do you challenge them to disclose how much commission they get every time they post?

          I just think your position is unreasonable and you seem to be overly emotional with this particular OP to argue a big issue that is applicable to many other posters on here. I think common sense tells you any commercial enterprise will receive a benefit in what they do - ask your boss :)

        • @wl au: Actually buddy, I really couldn't be bothered getting into it with you about what you claim to be "conflict of interest" which is really just you saying it - nothing more. I think you need to get a reality check - maybe give up you PAYE job and try your luck at being an entrepreneur.

        • @wl au: LOL - really, you don't have any argument, maybe one day you will realise that. I've learnt a long time ago not to enter into logical discussion with illogical people and this keyboard warrior stuff has zero interest for me.

          What I'm really interested in is how you intend to "build a business" when you believe there is an inherent "conflict of interest" in doing so. What's good for the OP is good for you right…or are you a practicing philosophical hypocrite?

          How do you intend to go about telling all your customer/clients how much money you are making on each transaction. Really…REALLY…interested in how that business model works - please tell!

          BTW - thanks for the prestigious imitation - love it!

        • @wl au: Buddy, its just getting embarrassing now to keep replying in this thread. Just take it up in PM if you want continue with it. Have you worked out the irony yet in your continual posts??

      It's not rocket science to sign up to travel zoo.

    Same price by booking directly with Cunard, they have a 2 for 1 promotion. Here is the direct link for the Sydney to Osaka one

    No deal.

    • Our members also get dinner for 2. That's an exclusive aspect of our deal

      • +3

        Not exactly an amazing bargain… but its something I guess.

        Ozbargain normally expects a bigger bargain then that, hence the name.

      • +3

        Well, according to this, they don't charge for dinner at the Verandah, only a cover charge… bit misleading…

          Cover charge is the price, eg $99 a person cover charge. I just went on a p&o cruise and the Salt restaurant was a $49 cover charge.

          Agree that this is no real deal, a free meal on a $4k trip is nothing.

        • @PVA: Thanks for clarifying! I've never been on a cruise and I just assumed that you just paid by item when you went to a restaurant not included in your program.

          Still, we agree there is no real deal, hehe.

        • +1

          @Nachotroncoso: yeah, cover charge sounds like an entrance fee to a nightclub.
          I think it's cruise term for extra cost.

  • +1

    Only good intentions here guys! We thought 50% off the regular price (albeit as part of a sale), plus an exclusive dinner is a pretty great deal for people looking to take a luxury Cunard cruise. It's the best deal in the market and the top clicker in our Newsletter today, so I wanted to share it. Next time we'll focus on more tangible savings message :-)

  • The price is for a very tiny inside cabin, the cabin with a window is $4419 , a little cheaper and bigger. What's the difference in these rooms , deal wise please.
    Cruises are very hard to decipher what's included, what's a good deal etc 🙁

    Any idea of what extras cost, like alcoholic drinks, gratuities?

    Thanks.

    • It should be all on the Cunard website, but yeah it can be confusing. Generally, cruises from Australia do not have gratuities any more. Alcohol is almost always extra unless you get one of the more expensive staterooms (sometimes it's thrown in as a freebie by the agent). Note that the QE is no longer considered as being even close to be best ships by the cruising community. $150 pppd is not really a bargain for an inside room.

    Great price for that quality of ship & whilst it is the same as the Cunard sale (aside from the Dinner), I wouldn't have heard about it if the rep hadn't posted this.

    Thanks for letting us know about this QE deal.

    I don't know why people are complaining - it is worth knowing about this deal anyway!!

      Thanks very much. To clarify the reason I posted this was because it was our top clicking deal from today's email and I thought because of this some people would be interested in it.

If they don't like the deal, don't take it - but it is the best in the market :-)
